Very nice! Tnx!

The mod works fine with TDW UI's 7.5.0 also...

Few questiuons...
No changes for UZO station?
Upper and bottom side of the RAOBF aren't visible on the screen, this can be spotted on your screenshots also...Those areas are necessary for manual speed and range estimation. Orange horizontal and vertical marks from RAOBF screen are also removed. It would be nice if You can fix this...

From the first post ''Binoculars and periscopes have markings utilizing milliradians system (if you don't know what that is, see "Range estimation" below). Thus RAOBF markings are disabled: use scope's markings instead.''

That's good to hear. I haven't been able to test with 7.5.0, but so long as those .ini files are the same as in 7.4.2, it should indeed work as intended.

What do you mean? UZO "buttocks" ocular with american graticules should be replaced with round one of the same size as the scopes. If it's not, then there's a bug. Please post a full screenshot so I can see what resolution you're using and determine what should be fixed.

Request to anyone interested in this mod:

I have only been able to test thoroughly for 4:3 and 16:10 aspect ratios, 16:9 was only confirmed by a friend of mine, though I haven't seen it in work myself. If you find any discrepancies in ocular sizes and/or inaccurate calculations (via manual estimations or RAOBF), please post screenshots with descriptions of what doesn't work.

Also, original scope mods (Arclight, emtguf, Manos) provide .cam files for more aspect ratios. If anyone could install the mod at those funky resolutions and post screenshots of each station (both scopes, UZO, binoculars), I could brew up .cam files for those as well. Calculating them is easy, but I'd like to make sure I correctly understand how the image scaling works in TDW's UI in different resolutions.

You're welcome, Dida44

I didn't change anything regarding target selection (don't know if I even could do it). Spacebar should work just fine, it does for me.

OK, that's for range finding but I really get used to calculate targets speeds with RAOBF and right now I cant see clearly ships lengths between 70 and 130 meters (upper invisible part)...
My question is simple, can you make RAOBF wheel just a littlebit smaller without changing periscope size so that everything of previous functionality could be preserved?
